Operational Criteria

BackgroundThe Operational Criteria Checklist (OPCRIT) generates diagnoses according to 12 operational diagnostic systems (e. g. DSM–III, DSM–III–R, Research Diagnostic Criteria, ICD–10)AimsTo examine the agreement between diagnoses generated by the OPCRIT, as completed by the interviewer, with a best-estimate lifetime procedure using the OPCRIT.MethodSubjects came from large mufti-generational bipolar or schizophrenia pedigrees (n=100), and from a sample of unrelated subjects with schizophrenia (n=40). We analysed the diagnostic agreement between OPCRIT diagnoses generated by the interviewer and our best-estimate OPCRIT diagnoses, according to DSM–III–R and ICD–10, using Cohen kappa statistics.ResultsExcellent agreement was found between interviewer OPCRIT diagnoses and OPCRIT diagnoses made by the best-estimate lifetime consensus procedure for DSM–III–R (κ=0.83) and ICD-10 (κ=0.81)ConclusionsResults suggest that this procedure for diagnostic assessment is an efficient alternative to classic best-estimate diagnosis procedures.

SummaryIn the present study, all patients who met the diagnostic criteria for a long-term functional psychosis (LFP) were identified within a defined uptake area in the northern part of the county of Uppsala, Sweden. LFP includes patients 1) with productive psychotic symptomatology, not caused by organic disease, for 1 week or more, at least once during the course of the illness; 2) having been affected by a psychosis for a continuous period of at least 6 months on the same occasion; 3) having shown psychotic features or residual symptoms during the index year; and 4) older than 18 years of age. Primarily, all diagnoses were made according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)-III-R. The prevalence of schizophrenia was 4.2 per 1,000 inhabitants. The prevalence of schizoaffective disorder was 0.7 per 1,000 inhabitants and for delusional disorder, 0.1 per 1,000 inhabitants. When the patients were rediagnosed according to DSM-III, DSM-IV and International Statistical Classification of Disease (ICD)-10, it was found that the prevalence of schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder and delusional disorder was somewhat lower according to the DSM-III criteria, while the same number of patients fulfilled the criteria according to DSM-IV. If ICD-10 was used, it resulted in a broader concept of schizophrenia and a somewhat more narrow concept of schizoaffective disorder. Thus, the introduction of the new parallel diagnostic systems, ICD-10 and DSM-IV, will result in different, but comparable, prevalence estimates concerning schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder and delusional disorder.

Virtual Chromoendoscopy

Background: Diagnosis of portal hypertensive gastropathy (PHG) is based on endoscopic criteria. I-scan technology, a new technique of virtual chromoendoscopy, increases the diagnostic accuracy for lesions in the gastrointestinal tract. Aim: To establish the role of i-scan endoscopy in the diagnosis of PHG. Method: In this prospective study, endoscopic examination was conducted first by using white light and after that i-scan 1 and i-scan 2 technology in a group of 50 consecutive cirrhotic patients. The endoscopic diagnostic criteria for PHG followed the Baveno criteria. The interobserver agreement between white light endoscopy and i-scan endoscopy was determined using Cohen’s kappa statistics. Results: Forty-five of the 50 patients met the diagnostic criteria for PHG when examined by i-scan endoscopy and 39 patients were diagnosed with PHG by white light endoscopy. The strength of agreement between the two methods for the diagnosis of PHG was moderate (k=0.565; 95%CI 0.271-0.859; p<0.001). I-scan 1 classified the mosaic pattern better than classic endoscopy; i-scan 2 described better the red spots. Conclusion: I-scan examination increased the diagnostic sensitivity of PHG. The diagnostic criteria (mosaic pattern and red spots) were easier to observe endoscopically using i-scan than in white light.Abbreviations: FICE: Fuji Intelligent chromoendoscopy; GAVE: gastric antral vascular ectasia; NBI: narrow band imaging; PHG: portal hypertensive gastropathy; PHT: portal hypertension; UGIB: upper gastrointestinal bleeding.

The Right

For a long time, there was a strong belief of existing continuity between childhood-onset psychoses and adult psychoses. Important moment in understanding psychotic presentations during infancy and childhood is Kanner's description of early infantile autism. Later studies of Rutter and Kolvin, as well as new classification systems, have delineated pervasive developmental disorders from all other psychotic disorders in childhood. But clinical experience is showing that in spite of existence of the group of pervasive developmental disorders with subgroups within it and necessary diagnostic criteria there are children with pervasive symptoms, who are not fulfilling all necessary diagnostic criteria for pervasive developmental disorder. Therefore, in this paper we are discussing and pointing at psychotic spectrum presentations in children, which have not the right place in any existing classification system (ICD-10, DSM-IV).

Abstract The National Opinion Research Center (NORC) Diagnostic Screen for Gambling Problems (NODS) is one of the most used outcome measures in gambling intervention trials. However, a screen based on DSM-5 gambling disorder criteria has yet to be developed or validated since the DSM-5 release in 2013. This omission is possibly because the criteria for gambling disorder only underwent minor changes from DSM-IV to DSM-5: the diagnostic threshold was reduced from 5 to 4 criteria, and the illegal activity criterion was removed. Validation of a measure that captures these changes is still warranted. The current study examined the psychometric properties of an online self-report past-year adaptation of the NODS based on DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for gambling disorder. Additionally, the new NODS was evaluated for how well it identifies ICD-10 pathological gambling. A diverse sample of participants (N = 959) was crowdsourced via Amazon’s TurkPrime. Internal consistency and one-week test-retest reliability were good. High correlations (r = .74–.77) with other measures of gambling problem severity were observed in addition to moderate correlations (r = .21–.36) with related but distinct constructs (e.g., gambling expenditures, time spent gambling, other addictive behaviours). All nine of the DSM-5 criteria loaded positively on one principal component, which accounted for 40% of the variance. Classification accuracy (i.e., sensitivity, specificity, predictive power) was generally very good with respect to the PGSI and ICD-10 diagnostic criteria. Future validation studies are encouraged to establish a gold standard measurement of gambling problem severity.

The etymology of delirium is highly expressive: it comes from the Latin de, meaning down or away from, and lira, a furrow or track in the fields; that is, to be off the track. The precise features of the syndrome have been specified in DSM-111-R (American Psychiatric Association, 1987) and in the Draft ICD-10 Diagnostic Criteria for Research (World Health Organization, 1990).

SummaryAn unselected series of 100 psychiatric in-patients was independently diagnosed by two clinicians using the PSE and by two computer diagnostic systems: CATEGO based on PSE items and DiaSiKa based on AMDP items. The computer programs are compared with respect to their diagnostic agreement with the clinical diagnoses.
